The Sun Lord

The Sun Lord, a radiant guardian of life, watches over the mortal planes with unwavering vigilance, embracing the eternal cycle of existence. On rare occasions, the Sun Lord extends his divine grace to resurrect chosen souls, granting them a renewed lease on life. His radiance emanates beyond the earthly realms, infusing those who are touched by his power with the brilliance of the sun. Warlocks are often visited by a Falcon, sent forth by the Sun Lord himself due to his benevolent discernment or in response to their earnest plea. Unlike other Patrons, the Sun Lord demands utmost devotion to the ideals of righteousness, offering a place of honor among the celestial beings of light. He communicates with his devoted through luminous visions, illuminating dreams, gentle whispers, or the presence of a Falcon.

The Sun Lord bestows power upon those whom he deems worthy, yet the gift is not granted without cost. As the sentinel of life's delicate balance, the Sun Lord employs his warlocks as guardians of fate, ensuring the rightful passage of souls.

Bonus Cantrips

At 1st level, you learn the Spare the Dying and Toll the Dead cantrips. They count as warlock cantrips for you, but they don't count against your number of cantrips known.

Falcon's Vigilance

At 1st level, the Sun Lord himself has bestowed upon you a Falcon to watch over you. The Falcon is sent to aid and protect his Warlocks.

 

You share a telepathic link with the Falcon, sharing its Vision and Hearing only. The link extends up to 1200 feet, but while using this feature, the Warlock is blinded and deafened, unable to respond to the world around him. When perched on your shoulder, the Falcon grants you Truesight with a range of 10 feet.

 

As long as the Falcon is within 100 feet of you, it can warn you as a bonus action. The Falcon does not sleep, allowing it to act as a vigilant lookout for the warlock.

 

The Falcon has the stats of a standard Falcon and can provide aid to you or an ally in combat.

 

If you die, fall unconscious, or if you and the Falcon are further than 2 miles from each other, the Falcon vanishes. You may summon the Falcon at the next sunrise with a 1-minute ritual. When summoned as a bonus action, it appears 5 feet from you.

Cast of Falcons

This ability can be used twice per day, and you regain expended uses after completing a short rest. You may summon the falcons up to 15 feet from you.
